WT67 - Open up
This week is another rerun week for the Way's to Use it Challenge. This week the challenge is to use envelopes in your work. There has been a request for ideas for the 5 in 1 envelope maker so you get "extra points";) for using that if you have one. Feel free to share any hints or tips you may have on this thread.
Here is the link to the past envelope challenge if you wish to take a peak...
WT31 - envelopes
As always, please remember to put WT67 in your keyword section. Please separate your keywords with commas if you wish to put mulitple keywords in. Post a link back here as well so that we can all view your work. This is not a contest or race, just a way to stretch your creativity and inspire. There is no time or posting limit so make as many as you wish.
Have a great day and I wish you all a safe and happy Canada Day and Fourth of July, |

I did this card for a graduation last month, using an envelope. But I'll do something else for this challenge when I get home from work. I have lots of mini-envelopes from Hollo's! __________________ Tammy Hershberger

Thanks for a great challenge Julia. I have that 5-in-1 template and have never used it. Hope I can play and get challenged into learning how to use the template.

I bought the 5-in-1 envelope template and have NEVER used it. I'm going to give it a try for this challenge. Will get busy when I get home from work tonight. Thanks, Julia, for spurring me on!

Great challenge Julia! I hope I get to play. I'm going to the hospital this morning to have injections in my neck...OUCH! They are putting me under for this proceedure. I'm supposed to take it easy for 24 hours. I hope I don't really have to do that. :( I'll be checking in to see everyone's work later on and I still hope to get to play.

What a perfect challenge! I was just thinking that I needed to start decorating my envies to match the cards. I don't have the template so I'll have to stick w/my existing. Or.....this would be a great reason to buy the mini envelope punch I've been wanting....hmmmm... __________________

Things I learned from SCS -
Here are a couple of envelopes I used in projects. I hope this qualifies for the challenge. I've used envelopes to make gift card holders which is a great idea that I got from this site. The first two are made from using regular #10 envelopes and the third is the large greeting card envelope (5-3/4" x 8-3/4")
This is holding a candy bar.
Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Here it is showing the candy bar inside: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Here's one that I used for a gift card--Same premise as above.
Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Here's a gift card holder made with a large greeting card envelope which I also learned from another SCS member. These might still be pending as I had to re-upload them to my gallery because I previously deleted them.

Sealed with a Kiss
SEALED WITH A KISS
This was a fun challenge. I have always wanted to make one of these envelope books and now I have. I inserted a few of my favorite stamped sentiments. It was hard to add this to a certain gallery since I used so many stamps from differents sets. This was fun...and more time consuming than I realized but it was fun.
Thanx for the challenge.

Here's mine. I really love this set and have to buy it. Of course the sample used the block background, but I follow my own ways. LOL
